Firefox LAUNCH on Desktop - NOT HAPPY

WHY is Firefox.exe file FORCED onto my desktop???

I do NOT want it there and if I move it, Firefox will not work.

It's bad enough to be inundated with spyware AI being forced upon us everywhere but for Mozilla to decide to FORCE FIREFOX ONTO MY DESKTOP WITHOUT MY PERMISSION is insulting and an invasion of my laptop.

I do NOT NEED MOZILLA to make decisions about my "ease of use."

I AM NOT HAPPY. I feel that I CANNOT TRUST FIREFOX AND MOZILLA like I used to be able to.

Please remove this aggression and restore the ability to CHOOSE WHERE AND HOW I LAUNCH FIREFOX.

Thank you.
